Phobias

Gimp doesn't recall seeing this thread.........yet

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Claustrophobic, you are. :)

Don't be ashamed, I'm somewhat of a claustrophobe myself. :-$

I suffer from vaderphobia. :( I can't stand the way he cuts off Luke's hand! ](*,) Luke is so cool! He shouldn't be without a hand. :(
Why don't we see more of Luke in this recent movie? He's the hero of the next 3... I think people wanted to see more of him when he was young. :noway:

Chandler??? Did you just see ROTS or something? You seem...oddly obsessed with Luke Skywalker in all these posts. :anxious:

Since my family is in the truck driving business (my big brother, my grandpa (retired), my step-dad, two of my cousins) I'm sure it's just a temporary fear..........but I am terrified of trucks (18-wheelers).

If they're parked in a truck stop or something like that it's all well and good............but if they're moving down the interstate, I'm near deathly afraid of them..........and for good reason.

But as I said before, I'm sure it's just a temporary fear that will pass soon.

Peace Out

I'm sort-of-kind-of-not-really-anymore acrophobic. And some sort of wierd hydrophobia variant dependent on whether I can see the bottom of the water or not... as in if I can't it scares me to death to swim in it.
>_<;; I blame platform games, personally, for the last one. yeah.
"Sonuna" Taranimak ("Sonuna" Sharkquill) has been content lately. She admired own very fine Bed recently. She talked with a parent recently. She talked with a friend recently. She had a good meal recently. She admired a fine tastefully-arranged Desk recently.
She is a citizen of The United States of America. She is a member of The State of Minnesota. She is a member of The Town of Odyssey.
"Sonuna" Taranimak likes Bauxite, Copper, Green jade, the color navy, cloaks, ballistas, cats for their aloofness and hydras for their seven heads. When possible, she prefers to consume Dr Pepper and ramen.
She lives at a relaxed pace. She tends to avoid crowds. She has a fertile imagination. She is completely disorganized. She is very distant and reserved. She tends not to openly express emotions. She needs caffeine to get through the working day.

I have a fear of Mark Hamil. (or whatever the actor's name is) He's very creepy...especially when he's clinging to that pole over that chasm. That bunny-like face that he makes...wooh. Scary.

I'm also scared of dark hallways. (maybe I said that before...oh well...I don't want to sift through five pages to see.)

I'm scared of being in confined spaces where I go in and realize I might not be able to get back out. And I'm also afraid of swimming to the middle of a spring, cause at first when you look own it looks normal, but then once you get to the middle the ground drops off into nothing, and the water is bubbling and swirling *shudders* it's scary!

For those of you who don't like heights, I'll describe a ride at Six Flags that you'd just love! :badgrin:

It's called.....Acrophobia. A 200-ft. tall tower, with a ring of seats around it that's taken to the very top then dropped! It was great! :)
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance.

I'm scared of having to eat things I don't like. For some reason, that makes me so nervous and sweaty.

I'm afraid of spiders, pranks at camp, EK at camp, high narrow places, bugs, and anything else that makes me afraid...like scary movies.
